George W. in Madden 2006I saw the most bizarre thing on this week’s episode of On The Spot. The boys at EA Tiburon were visited by Governor Jeb Bush (since they are located in Florida). They made a special movie where they put Jeb and George W. in Madden 2006. Jeb was on the Miami Dolphins and George W. played for the Cowboys, of course. You can see the full movie here on EA's web site.

Next week, Sony will release the PSP firmware update that will allow us to browse the Internet through the WiFi connection. Can’t wait, and I saw a post about how to use MSN Messenger through the PSP. I guess it also works for the cell phone, but it might be interesting if you need to send messages on the go. Next week I am going to this website to login and tell my wife when I am coming home.

Tiger Tuesdays are back at IGN while they countdown the days to the release of Tiger Woods 2006. They have an article and movies about how they mo-capped Tiger’s latest swing. His swing change was pretty controversial last year, as he had a dry spell, but now after winning the Master's and the British Open at St. Andrews, I bet Tiger feels vindicated. Madden always gets the glory for being a top-seller, but if you look at the charts, Tiger Woods PGA Tour 2005 is still in the top ten, almost a year after it was released. Oh yeah, IGN has a new SSX: On Tour movie up, featuring the skiing tour mode. I wasn’t too sure about the skiing mode, but this video makes it look very exciting. You can do just as many tricks with skis as you could with snowboards and you get fresh hip-hop music as well. Nuff said.

the florida marlins are a baseball team.

Thanks for the catch. It was the Miami Dolphins. What a brain fart! I've corrected the article.
